Scope: Federal

This is a Sources Sought Notice for the Defense Activity for Non-Traditional Education Services (DANTES) College Level Examination Program (CLEP).

This requirement is currently being performed by College Entrance Examination Board under contract H9821022D0001.

The Government intends to sole source this follow-on requirement to the College Entrance Examination Board, if additional, capable vendors are not identified.

Please reference the Sources Sought and draft Performance Work Statement (PWS) for information on how to submit a response.

Submissions shall not exceed 15 pages.

Please note that the PWS identifies Attachments 1, 2, and 4 (Attachment 3 is reserved), which contain reporting codes for examination results.

If this information is necessary to reply to the Sources Sought, please send an email to the Contract Specialist outlining the need for the information.

Official solicitation and documents

The full solicitation, any attachments, and the actual submission instructions live on the official listing, not on this page. Oppward summarizes public record data; it does not host or mirror the source documents.

Oppward is an independent service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by SAM.gov or any government agency. This page is a plain-English summary of public record data; the linked source above is the authoritative listing.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
